The UK has appointed Madeleine Alessandri as its first special envoy for climate security, Prime Minister Andy Burnham announced at the COP31 climate summit in Antalya.
Burnham said climate change was a national security issue. Alessandri previously led the Joint Intelligence Committee, which examines national security matters.
The committee worked under her leadership on a report about how climate problems could affect state security. The report warned that collapsing ecosystems could contribute to food shortages, mass migration and conflict between countries, according to the Guardian account cited by ANP.
